2013 G20 Anti-corruption and Transparency Background Policy Brief

The U.S. G8/G20 Advocacy Alliance welcomes the G20's continued focus on global corruption and its commitment to closing the implementation and enforcement gap. The G20 Anti-Corruption Action Plan for 2013-2014 contains significant anti-corruption commitments; the United States needs to press countries to fully and rapidly implement the plan.

Summary of Recommendations:

  1. Implement and effectively enforce international anti-corruption conventions, including the UN Convention Against Corruption and the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention.
  2. Implement effective anti-money laundering actions and continue to support asset recovery initiatives.
  3. Promote integrity, transparency, accountability and prevention of corruption in the public sector.
